Canadian maple syrup farmer Ruth Landry hits back at bureaucratic exploitation by planning a syrup heist with low-level Boston criminal Mike Byrne and inside man Remy Bouchard.
The long-delayed heist gets underway in the middle of a farmers’ uprising, and the gang must use all their ingenuity to improvise their way through a series of unforeseen disasters.
Ruth Clarke, a tough, supremely competent middle-aged Canadian maple syrup farmer has had it with being hemmed in by the polite, bureaucratic conventions native to her country’s identity. With the help of Remy Bouchard, a pint-sized local blockhead and an aging Mike Byrne, a low-level mobster, Ruth changes her fate — and transforms the future of her community with the theft of millions of dollars’ worth of maple syrup.
